I would love a current Kairi Sane in ultimate form. We never did get Kabuki Warriors before, so I definitely want them now, and yeah. An elite isn't gonna cut it. Current in ultimate form and her previous elite released in Greatest Hits. Its current third party price is ridiculous. |

I mean, I get that it's her only figure so far but, dang. |

Yeah, I think the prices started to rise when she went back to Stardom (I assume that was on the premise of it being possibly her only figure ever) and then just, like, never dropped when she came back to WWE. But hopefully we'll get some Kabuki Warriors Kairis soon. |

They've gone up in the last few months she came back to WWE. I was considering shelling $48 for her a few months ago. Now it looks like $90 minimum. I wouldn't mind an Ultimate of this look which is similar to her elite:  |

Trying to think of any legends that could benefit from UE budget. Other than Liz and Sherri, no one really needs to be an ultimate. Chyna didn’t have any elaborate entrance attire and mostly wore all black. Maybe if you included her pyro bazooka but that could probably be included in the elite series. Trish and Lita have both been executed to their full potential as elites. Blayze maybe with her entrance attire but that screams shelf warmer to me.

Liz fits into Coliseum Collection and Sherri probably has elaborate enough gear + fun facial expressions to warrant one. But yeah, in terms of figures that need the format, it feels like the best female Legends UE release, in an ideal world, would be like Alundra Blazye vs. Bull Nakano as a Ringside exclusive. Blayze had elaborate entrance attire and Bull would mostly be a unique sculpt anyway.
I actually think stalker-era Mickie might fit, too? Soft goods would probably be a fit for her gear from the era, and you also get a lot of crazy facial expressions for the alternate heads.

We got an all black Becky Lynch with heads and a titles. A Chyna with the Ultimate articulation and a few different heads. Along with the Women’s and Intercontinental titles. Boom! Ultimate Edition. Highly doubt Mattel package a bazooka with any figures. As for Trish and Lita… cloth goods and interchangeable heads would justify the Ultimate price tag. Ultimates allow for the bigger budgets that Elites don’t. |

Ultimates allow for the bigger budgets that Elites don’t. Becky was stacked as an ultimate. 2 belts, entrance jacket, and swappable arms. Her figure required the UE budget to be pulled off. Chyna, Lita, or Trish aren’t necessary. Any version of them can easily be pulled off in the elite or basic line. But I’m of the mindset that not everyone needs to be an ultimate. |

After the WM Chyna elite, I don't think they will be making any Chyna's anytime soon let alone one that costs 35 bucks lol. |

If Jarrett is ever under a merch deal again a Good Housekeeping Match UE could be cool. But definitely not one on her own. |

I don't think past female wrestlers would push numbers as Ultimates. Also managers and valets don't need that either (males included). Unless people really need their valet to wear some extravagant dress that just wouldn't work for the budget of an Elite. That is moving into Barbie/Doll territory to me and people would probably want removable swapable heels for them too 🤣
With that being said right now I can see Rhea, Tiffany, Jade pushing numbers as an Ultimate. Naomi and her entrance gear would be pretty awesome from an aesthetic point. An updated Becky of her first Ultimate is needed badly. Give her the updated smaller belts, new head sculpts, and if it's possible the Asuka treatment on her body. I don't really want a modern Becky.

Plus it didn’t help that the attire they chose wasn’t one that most people resonate with. And that the BAF series was kind of a boring one that many didn’t feel the need to complete. |

Isn't that figure so old that it WAS a store exclusive since the WrestleMania elites used to be Target Exclusives? You are correct, that set is arguably the worst elite set of all time. |

I don’t think WM elites were ever exclusive anywhere. I know RSC and Amazon had this wave. |
